Is there an existing issue for this feature request?

I have searched the existing issues

If there is ever a need to view the gcode file (such as in Fluidd, selecting edit on the file to open it in the browser) a large portion of the start is all thumbnail clutter. This becomes extremely bothersome during testing where you need to check the start of the printing gcode.

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

SuperSlicer has an option to Print at the end in the thumbnail settings. This will make it print that thumbnail code at the very end of the file (where a lot of other statistics are already when using verbose g-code) since it's not something you normally mess with anyway.

Describe alternatives you've considered

No response

Additional context

Part of the description for it in SuperSlicer is, Most firmwares expect it in the front so I assume some will not render the thumbnail correctly if it's at the end. For Klipper this doesn't seem to be an issue but I don't have printers with another firmware to test this with myself. Keeping it as an option (that isn't on by default) would allow users to enable it if they feel the need and it won't break things for them.
